Phys.org / A single gene may control corn snake's skin pattern diversity
In many animals, skin coloration and its patterns play a crucial role in camouflage, communication, or thermoregulation. In the corn snake, some morphs display red, yellow, or pink blotches, and their dorsal spots can merge ...

Medical Xpress / AI 'digital twin' platform personalizes cancer treatment dosing in research trial
While artificial intelligence (AI) has shown promising potential, much of its use has remained theoretical or retrospective. Turning its potential into real-world health care outcomes, researchers at the Yong Loo Lin School ...

Phys.org / How bacteria and textile fibers can heal bones
Have you ever wondered if there is a way to heal bones without having to take bone from another part of the body? A new doctoral thesis from the University of Borås, Sweden, now presents exciting advancements in this area. ...

Phys.org / Evolutionary analysis uncovers protein changes that protect mammals from aging and disease
Over recent decades, humanity has witnessed a remarkable and continuous increase in lifespan. However, this advancement has been accompanied by a growing aging population, increasingly affected by age-related diseases such ...

Phys.org / New microscope reveals quantum dance of atoms in twisted graphene
In new research published in Nature, Weizmann Institute scientists introduce a powerful tool to explore quantum phenomena—the cryogenic Quantum Twisting Microscope (QTM).

Medical Xpress / Gene therapy delivered early can help children with rare neurodegenerative disease retain motor and cognitive functions
If administered early, gene therapy has the potential to change the medical history of children born with metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD), a rare and lethal neurodegenerative disease of genetic origin which leads to the ...

Phys.org / Scientists repurpose gene editing tool to help uncover hidden microbial diversity
Pioneering research led by the University of Bristol has repurposed a gene-editing tool to help shed light on the true biodiversity present in natural environments. The study, published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, ...

Tech Xplore / Sunlight and sugarcane waste power hydrogen production at rate four times higher than commercialization benchmark
A technology for hydrogen (H2) production has been developed by a team of researchers led by Professors Seungho Cho and Kwanyong Seo from the School of Energy and Chemical Engineering at UNIST, in collaboration with Professor ...

Phys.org / Physicists uncover hidden order in the quantum world through deconfined quantum critical points
In the intricate world of quantum physics, where particles interact in ways that seem to defy the standard rules of space and time, lies a profound mystery that continues to captivate scientists: the nature of deconfined ...

Medical Xpress / 3D spatial mapping of tumor cell 'neighborhoods' reveals potential targets for personalized cancer therapy
Researchers in Nikolaus Rajewsky's lab at Max Delbrück Center combined high-resolution, single-cell spatial technologies to map a tumor's cellular neighborhoods in 3D and identify potential targets for personalized cancer ...

Phys.org / Multi-spacecraft radio observations trace the heliospheric magnetic field
Solar flares accelerate energetic electrons that escape into interplanetary space, guided by the Parker spiral magnetic field, and are responsible for the generation of the interplanetary Type III solar radio bursts. With ...

Phys.org / Planetary alignment provides NASA rare opportunity to study Uranus
When a planet's orbit brings it between Earth and a distant star, it's more than just a cosmic game of hide and seek. It's an opportunity for NASA to improve its understanding of that planet's atmosphere and rings. Planetary ...
